CHARLES JACKSON,

Appellant,

v.

NEW JERSEY STATE

PAROLE BOARD,

Respondent.

 

Submitted March 22, 2006 - Decided April 5, 2006

Before Judges Conley and Winkelstein.

On appeal from a final decision of the New Jersey State Parole Board.

Charles Jackson, appellant pro se.

Zulima V. Farber, Attorney General, attorney for respondent (Patrick DeAlmeida, Assistant Attorney General, of counsel; Walter C. Kowalski, Deputy Attorney General, on the brief).

PER CURIAM

Appellant Charles Jackson is incarcerated in Northern State Prison serving a life term for murder committed during an armed robbery. He purports to appeal from a final administrative decision of the New Jersey State Parole Board rendered on March 14, 2005, changing his parole eligibility date to December 11, 2005. The record does not, however, contain any evidence that his parole eligibility date was ever changed to December 11, 2005. Rather, on April 30, 2005, the Parole Board calculated appellant's parole eligibility date to be October 15, 2005. His actual parole eligibility date is now April 27, 2007. While appellant's appeal does not challenge the latter date, we have nevertheless reviewed the Parole Board's decision, and find no basis to disturb it. We do not find appellant's parole eligibility dates to have been arbitrary or otherwise an abuse of discretion. See Trantino v. N.J. State Parole Bd., 154 N.J. 19, 25 (1998). Appellant's arguments are without sufficient merit to warrant discussion in a written opinion. See R. 2:11-3(e)(1)(D)&(E).

 
Affirmed.
